1
Prepare the Steak
Remove the filet mignon from the refrigerator and let it sit at room temperature for about 30 minutes before cooking. This allows for even cooking.
2
Season the Steak
Pat the steak dry with paper towels. Rub both sides of the filet mignon with olive oil, then season generously with salt and black pepper on both sides.

3
Preheat the Pan
In a heavy skillet or cast-iron pan, heat over high heat until very hot, about 5 minutes.
4
Sear the Steak
Add the seasoned filet mignon to the hot pan. Sear for about 4-5 minutes on one side without moving it, until a golden-brown crust forms.
5
Flip and Add Aromatics
Flip the steak over and add the garlic cloves, rosemary, and butter to the pan. Continue cooking for another 4-5 minutes for medium-rare, basting the steak with the melted butter and aromatics.
6
Check Doneness
Use a meat thermometer to check the internal temperature. For medium-rare, it should register at 130°F (54°C). Adjust cooking time to achieve desired doneness.

7
Rest the Steak
Remove the filet mignon from the pan and transfer it to a cutting board. Tent with aluminum foil and let it rest for 5-10 minutes to retain juices.

8
Slice and Serve
Slice the filet mignon against the grain and serve with your choice of sides. Enjoy!
